    The fiery sunset slanted down, reflecting the evening glow all over the sky into a magnificent color of purple and red.  ¡­ It¡¯s May, and Berlin is already feeling the heat of summer. The evening breeze brings a touch of heat amidst the freshness and coolness.  However, in the leafy suburbs of Charlottenburg Palace, the temperature is still as pleasant as spring.  As the summer residence of the German royal family, Charlottenburg Palace becomes another political center in Germany parallel to Berlin every summer. Although bureaucrats at all levels, headed by the Prime Minister, can handle all daily affairs, those key decisions  But the emperor still needs to give a holy judgment.  ¡°Tuk-tuk.¡± A crisp knock on the door sounded in a low voice, which was particularly clear in the wide hall. A moment later, Prime Minister Ekman, dressed in formal attire, revealed his thin figure with a waist as thin as a bee.  Seeing the tall figure standing in front of the main seat, Ekman bowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, the Navy just sent back a telegram from the Atlantic front. They severely damaged the US fleet entering the Atlantic and confirmed that there were 4 large ships.  A total of 6 US aircraft carriers and 2 small ones were sunk. Our aircraft carrier Richthofen unfortunately sank, with a total of more than 2,700 casualties. The detailed battle report will be shown to you in a subsequent memorandum. " Qingying Weiwei.  He nodded, responding to Ekman's words.  No one can understand the advantages of the current German Navy better than him, who single-handedly created the fleet: No matter from which perspective, the performance of the current single ship of the German Navy has changed due to his multiple cheating increases.  The situation is extremely scary. Even if the Americans can take advantage, they will never be able to reverse the situation at this time when the lineup is also at an absolute disadvantage.  Now except the air force cannot crush its opponents.  The army and navy have already formed an absolute advantage that is enough to seal the victory.  If all goes well.  This war against the United States may even end before Christmas this year.  Seemingly understanding what Qingying was thinking, Ekman spoke again: "After the threat from the sea is eliminated, the worries of the land and air forces will no longer exist. Our ships transporting supplies can sail more frequently.  Above the ocean, the power of the land and air forces will be further unleashed. In the next month, our cargo shipments to the American front are expected to increase by 10% compared with normal conditions, enough to satisfy 70 army divisions.  and the combat needs of 5 aviation fleets. The only factor restricting our offensive in the southern United States is the railway transportation capacity of Mexico. The railway situation in this country is quite inferior to that of Germany half a century ago. According to the army,  Report sent back. The railway equipment in Mexico is not only old and poorly maintained, but also the total number of locomotives and carriages is quite scarce. So much so that a large amount of materials unloaded from the eastern seaports need to be transported to the front line by horse-drawn carts, with a total distance of 400  To 700 kilometers, the efficiency is greatly reduced. In fact, this is the shortest transportation distance that our army can achieve to unload goods from the northeastern Mexican port of Tampico. Due to the limited throughput capacity of this small port, most supplies must be further back.  The port of Veracruz is unloaded, and the transshipment distance from here is a full 400 kilometers away. "This is not a difficult problem to solve, but the Americans have poor infrastructure.  The port roads are efficient and advanced and are of great use. As long as our army can open up some of their coastal ports in the southern United States, the transport fleets loaded with various supplies can be unloaded directly to the front line.  Their roads are delivered to the hands of various combat troops." Qingying smiled slightly, and his words revealed a confident and relaxed tone, "Whether it is the docks for handling goods or the roads for relay transportation, the American facilities are better than those empty ones.  The Mexicans who are full of revenge and hatred but have no actual preparation are much better. These road facilities that once promoted the rapid economic growth of the United States should now be put to use by us. "For war in the industrial era.  , the status of logistics supplies is almost crucial: an attacking infantry division consumes at least 200 tons of supplies every day, and the operation of a large number of motor vehicles and artillery will consume astonishing amounts of fuel and ammunition.  As for the mechanized armored divisions and the aviation force soaring in the sky, there is no need to mention their ability to squander supplies.  Once the logistics are inadequate, the offensive momentum will be lost, or the entire army will be ruined. There are countless typical cases in the Soviet-German War in another dimension.  One of the decisive reasons why the German army failed in the Typhoon operation to capture Moscow was that the Soviets saved themselves by their poor roads: the Soviet Union under the rule of a loving father unilaterally pursued heavy industry, resulting in a large number of roads related to people's livelihood being made of clay.  When the rainy season in Eastern Europe arrives in September, these roads suddenly turn into nightmare-like muddy ponds, and people, horses and vehicles can even sink half a meter into them.  The German army, which traveled thousands of miles along the wide roads in Western Europe, had never encountered such a battle before. It was as if it was being held back by a pair of invisible hands, and logistical support became difficult; in the end, the Soviets were able toIn front of the opponent's front, he endured the cold winter that happened once in decades, and for the first time reversed the disastrous situation in which the army collapsed thousands of miles away.  However, in the United States, known as the lighthouse country, tragic road conditions such as the Soviet-German War will never happen again to the German army.  The only thing that is blocked by bad roads now is the South Russian army that is aggressively attacking north: It is impossible for Soviet Russia in this area to have the energy to improve domestic infrastructure. The situation of being surrounded by tigers and wolves makes them almost  All available forces were invested in the military industry.  For the Kremlin dictator, even surviving the Mid-Autumn Festival until the rainy season has become a luxury: after experiencing the purge of counter-revolutionaries, the Red Army retreated like a landslide, and a large number of disastrous news followed.  Even though his willpower was as his name suggests, he couldn't help but feel frightened and confused.  "How is the war situation in the East going?" After thinking about this, Qingying couldn't help but ask.  Although the South Russian forces entrenched on the Don River are only a vassal of Germany, their role in Germany's Eastern strategy is irreplaceable. What's more, Elena, who married Alexei, was chosen by Qingying.  The most beloved pearl, and even Alexey himself has long been regarded as his own by Qingying.  Qingying would not have entrusted her daughter to Alexei's care if she had not taken her with her and trained her carefully since childhood and established a deep friendship with them.  "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the Russian Tsar's army has always been victorious." Ekman understood the special relationship between the monarch in front of him and the only descendant of the Romanov royal family, and then told Qingying about the recent war in Russia.  Come on.  Although he did not come from the military, he had worked in the center for more than ten years after all. Under his influence, he could also clearly describe the overall situation of the battlefield through memos.  After more than three months of fighting, the White Army of South Russia has advanced 500 kilometers. With the strafing support of air fighters and the roaring rolling of land tanks, they completed two large-scale encirclements and annihilations, annihilating the enemy in total.  More than 600,000 people.  Since the quality of their troops and their weapons and equipment were far superior to their opponents, their own casualties were extremely light, and their total losses were less than a fraction of the enemy's.  Due to the series of high-pressure terror regimes established by Soviet Russia after taking power, the Russian Empire, whose program was to "establish a State Duma and redistribute land to peasants", seemed to have become the source of support for the people who had been brutally suppressed by the Bolsheviks.  As saviors, the roles played by both parties have completely changed from those 25 years ago!  When the Southern King's Division arrived, the people welcomed them with buckets of food and drink. Even in the rear areas controlled by the Red Russians, there were many organized uprisings. Various guerrillas and saboteurs emerged in endlessly, hindering the Red Russians.  The normal operation of the war machine.  Compared with the unity that resisted the German invasion in history, the Russian people during the civil war did not have any national ideological baggage when choosing a side; for a time, the Soviet Russian regime was in war, internally and externally, and it was an apocalyptic scene where the building was about to collapse.  .  "Romanov's empire will be restored, and the imperial power of Hohenzollern will radiate throughout Europe." After hearing Ekman briefly describe the situation in the East, Qingying said happily.  When the Soviet Union collapsed, it was the beginning of Germany's extension of its power to Siberia. After the war, Russia needed extensive and lengthy national reconstruction, and the only country capable of providing capital to complete it was Germany.  In this way, the entire newly born Romanov Empire will be completely integrated into the German economy, and the Slavic fighting nation will never be able to become the giant steamroller bear that once looked down on Europe.  "Your Majesty, there is one more thing I need to report to you. The 'Godfall' project headed by Dr. Hahn and Dr. Heisenberg has entered the final stage, and the first special bomb has been manufactured. Before it is put into actual combat use  , scientific workers all hope to conduct an experiment first to obtain relevant data during the explosion and the damage to the target, so as to determine the best use to maximize its power. After all, this is a completely different kind of technology.  There are brand-new weapons, but all our estimates of its power are only on paper." Ekman calmed down and said to Qingying in a lowered voice.  In this room with only the two of them, he seemed to still be worried that this absolute secret would be eavesdropped by hostile forces.  "Is it finally completed?" Qingying, who heard Ekman's report and knew all the inside information, suddenly felt happy. With the help of this big killer weapon, this war is expected to end soon.  (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster! ps: Thanks to book friends Longcheng Xiaoyi, Yuan yh1234567, and zhouyu1976 for their tips~~~
